Description
#### Steps to reproduce the issue
1. In Settings->General, check "Anyone can register"
2. Enable the Jetpack SSO module
3. In an incognito window, go to yousite.com/wp-login.php
4. Log in via SSO (which should auto-create the user account)
#### What I expected
Fully authenticated - connecting via SSO should really make me "fully connected".
#### What happened instead
System seems to think I have not connected my account to WPCOM.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with “Anyone can register” enabled and Jetpack SSO active, then trace the SSO login and auto-created user flow. Compare the resulting connection state with an already connected account; done means a newly registered SSO user is recognized as fully connected to WPCOM.
